This revolutionary work is the first one-volume commentary written exclusively by African theologians. Coming from an Evangelical perspective, it explains Scripture using appropriate examples from current African culture and the rich history of African proverbs. As such, it applies God's Word to distinctively African concerns, yet it includes fresh insights that have a universal appeal.

In addition to the section-by-section interpretive commentary, including application, the Africa Bible Commentary contains more than 70 special articles on topics of key importance to African ministry today---which have global implications. It also transcends the African context with insights into biblical texts and the Christian faith for readers worldwide.
